Gao Qiyu made big news. In the Yingtianfu Township Examination, he published a song "Shun also ordered Yu". This incident completely made Zhang Juzheng extremely passive. Under the pressure of wind and public opinion, Zhang Juzheng He can only choose to become an official to prove his innocence.
Gao Qiyu is a Party member. When such a question arises, especially in the capital, people have to suspect that Gao Qiyu is trying to persuade people to join.
Zhang Juzheng knew in his heart that there was no possibility for him to go further. If he took one step forward, he would be in a bottomless abyss. If he wanted to go further, he would have to have a good relationship with the ethnic party and the world's bureaucrats. With the influence of public opinion, Only with blessing can one transgress.
Even according to the three generations above the Dharma of Fu Confucianism, vulgar Confucianism, and Ju Confucianism, Dayu got the Mandate of Heaven by controlling the floods, and Zhang Juzheng had to cure the world in order to get the Mandate of Heaven. But the first task in governing the world is to eliminate the dangers of appeasement and bribery. Rectifying the administration of officials and promoting the method of examination have resulted in a basic fact, that is: if you get the mandate of heaven, you will not get the support of all officials, and if you get the support of hundreds of officials, you will not get the mandate of heaven at all.
If you don’t have the destiny to be valued by the country, if you can’t manage your own ambitions, and you can’t govern the world, wouldn’t you live like a fool?
Just like the prophecy of last year's guest star who violated the throne and the treacherous minister who was a tyrant, Zhang Juzheng had no other choice but to become an official to prove his loyalty.
Zhu Yijun sighed and said: "It's really a skin-removing and bone-removing technique. It's really amazing."
"Skin removal and bone removal?" Hai Rui was a little surprised. After thinking about it for a moment, his expression changed drastically.
The impeachment against Zhang Juzheng was a complete set of skin-removing and bone-removing techniques. This combination of punches caught Zhang Juzheng off guard.
If you want to bring down an official but lack the conditions or ability, you have to start with the people around him. Therefore, the "skin" is a small official and the "bone" is a high official.
Kedao officials take advantage of their own advantages. They start by picking on minor officials, such as impeaching a minor official for speaking arrogantly, behaving in a manner that violates etiquette, being late for court, being immoral in private life, etc. In short, these are all things that are not worth mentioning. little things. When a low-level official was impeached, the high-ranking official he was attached to naturally had to speak for him. In this way, the high-ranking official found an opportunity to involve them together, and finally wrote a letter to the emperor for impeachment.
In other matters, Zhang Juzheng still had a way to break the situation, but when it came to the throne, Zhang Juzheng could not defend himself and could only become an official.
"What does it mean to remove the skin and bones?" He asked Ge Shouli if he didn't understand, looking at Hai Rui and asked.
Hai Rui was silent for a moment and said, "That's the trick you used."
"Ah." Ge Shouli summarized it carefully and figured out the key. He unintentionally launched a move that killed Zhang Juzheng. The charges that Zhang Juzheng was impeached in the past were all for making trouble. Play, if you are really powerful, you still have to look at Zhang Dang.
At this time, the role of the little emperor came into play. As the only referee of the Ming Dynasty, he needed to use unlimited discretion. Under the discretion, whether Zhang Juzheng's move had the power to shock the emperor.
Zhu Yijun sat up straight and said: "It's just a forced agreement. It's just a matter of one or two ministers coveting power and not getting it. They make light of the matter and don't know that Mr. Tiao Wei is suffering from it. The current mess in the Ming Dynasty is not caused by Mr. Tiao Wei's hard work. , I am afraid that the world has been confused for a long time and the world is in chaos."
"Now I make it clear to all the gentlemen: I have no fault in the virtue of Liang Youchong, but the implementation of government orders has turned out to be dirty, or there have been disputes after the matter has been dealt with, and I have even joined in and provoked trouble. This is really not what I want. Now the imperial court The Qing Dynasty banquet is peaceful both at home and abroad. Fortunately, the gates are closed and hundreds of officials are on duty. This is enough."
"If there is a day of overthrow, I know that people and things are wrong. It is really destiny."
Zhang Juzheng has done a very good job in his position as chief minister. If one day, Zhang Juzheng usurps his throne, Zhu Yijun will not regret it. He can only say that he has misjudged the person. If you can say that, it is destiny.
Before Yang Bo left, he told Zhang Juzheng that the only way to break the situation with the death of people and the government lies with the emperor.
Now, Zhu Yijun expresses his support for Zhang Juzheng in clear words.
"I thank your Majesty for your kindness." Zhang Juzheng was silent for a moment and knelt on the ground to thank him. At present, the situation in the Ming Dynasty was not completely stable, and Zhang Juzheng knew that he had to continue to work.
Zhu Yijun thought for a while and said: "Gao Qiyu's matter stops here. There is no need to say anything more. Excessive analysis and judgment will only cause a lot of discussion in the DPRK and China, and make the inside and outside uneasy."
"I thank your Majesty for your kindness." After hearing His Majesty's disposition, Zhang Juzheng fell on the ground and kowtowed again.
Regarding Gao Qiyu, you can say that he is above the third generation of law and it is a serious examination, or you can say that he is hiding evil intentions and it is an act of persuasion. If we continue to argue like this, nothing will be done.
The little emperor wanted to find someone to replace Zhang Juzheng, but he couldn't find one, right?
"Sir, please excuse me and continue the court discussion." Zhu Yijun said with a smile, indicating that the ministers should not be too surprised.
After Zhang Juzheng stood up, he frowned and said: "Gao Qiyu is not suitable to be a co-examiner, so I will exclude him. The Ministry of Rites will recommend someone to be a co-examiner."
"Wang Jiaping, who was compiled by the Hanlin Academy, spoke according to the situation, was rich and dignified, and presented the performance with sincerity. He is a good person. I wonder what Yuan Fu thought?" Wan Shihe thought about it and recommended a person. Wang Jiaping is The Jin Party held a banquet at the Wenhua Hall last time, and the young emperor asked the duo, Wang Jiaping and Fan Yingqi, who were at a loss what to do.
Zhang Juzheng shook his head and said: "It's all right, what do you think?"
No one objected.
Ge Shouli launched a powerful impeachment, forcing Zhang Juzheng to surrender, and Zhang Juzheng could only evade one or two. Then the Jin Party would naturally reap the fruits of victory. From then on, about the chief examiner and deputy examiner in the spring of February of the second year of Wanli , completely established.
After the court meeting, Zhu Yijun did not let the scholars and lecturers enter the palace. Instead, he looked at Zhang Juzheng and said with a smile: "Qi Shuai said that victory and defeat are common matters for military strategists. Only by understanding this principle can we know and use troops. Ge Shouli won the battle, Qi Shuaicheng will not bully me."
Only when you understand victory and defeat is a common thing for a military strategist, you can know how to fight. This is what Zongze, who was left in Tokyo at that time, said to Yue Fei.
"The real ministers are not strict with their subordinates. Gao Qi is stupid and has no heart of reverence. He also does not know the destiny. The Lord is young and wise. He is gradually enlightened. He is humiliated because he has no knowledge of friendship. He dares to tell his innermost feelings. Fortunately, he is a warning." Zhang Juzheng hurriedly bowed his head and played the antidote. road.
The emperor is young, so naturally some people will think too much. If they do such a thing, they will have to bear the price.
The fundamental problem of Zhu Shaoguo's suspicion is that the emperor's lack of imperial power due to his young age is incapable of taking care of matters. This is extremely fatal in the design of a system based on an imperial system.
However, Zhu Yijun can take matters into his own hands and partially handle them. In key places, he can exercise imperial power to prevent things from slipping out of control.
Zhu Yijun thought for a while and asked: "Sir, who is instigating this? Is it Zhang Siwei who is dissatisfied with the court's reneging on its promises and not allowing him to return the land, or is Xu Jie dissatisfied with the court's request to return the land, which is becoming more and more urgent?" "
Zhang Juzheng bowed his head and said, "Gao Qiyu is just stupid."
If you can't get down the stairs, Zhang Yuanfu, you don't know what is good or bad!
As long as Zhang Juzheng puts this shit basin on the head of Zhang Siwei or Xu Jie, won't he remove himself cleanly? Anyway, Zhang Siwei and Xu Jie were both in the cesspit themselves, or the excrement itself was not the least of them.
In addition to the unity of the king, father, and country, Zhang Juzheng will follow His Majesty's advice on everything else: one is one, two is two, and he will be faithful. Whoever makes a stupid mistake is his problem, and there is no need to accuse others.
"I'd like to ask you to cut me down as a foolish official and return home to live in peace." Zhang Juzheng bowed his head and asked for orders.
Zhu Yijun still refused, and said: "I have already said that Gao Qiyu's matter stops here. There is no need to say anything more. If he is to reduce his official status and punish him so severely, there must be a reason. Then there will be discussions about the questions in this provincial examination. One after another, Mr. Yuan Fu has always respected officials and must be flexible."
If I say cold treatment, I'll deal with it coldly. This matter is just handled in such a muddle-headed manner, and it's over.
"I accept the order." Zhang Juzheng had no choice but to obey his leader's orders.
At dusk, Ge Shouli returned to the Quanjin Guild Hall from the Yamen of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. As soon as he entered the door, he saw that everyone in the Jin party was waiting for Ge Shouli's return after victory.
"Gong Ge is so righteous that he will be rewarded with a great victory." All the officials of the Jin Party and others knelt down to congratulate Gong Ge on his triumphant return!
Seeing this, Ge Shouli's already serious expression became angry. He flicked his sleeves and said angrily: "Kneel down, kneel down, kneel down! Most of them are public officials, but do they have any integrity?!"
"Kneel down, Master of Heaven and Earth, why do you kneel to me, the master of the hall? You are not allowed to kneel!"
"Whoever kneels down in the future will return the guild hall badge and stop being a member of the Quanjin Guild Hall. Do you have any semblance of an official?"
After Ge Shouli became the party leader, he has always been a good man, rarely angry, and led the Jin Party to victory step by step. Everyone praised Ge Shouli as being comparable to Yang Bo. Facing the powerful Zhang Juzheng, he could achieve such results. He was worthy of Yang Bo. The party leader chosen by Dazai!
But this time, Ge Shouli was really angry. The Constitution stipulated that kneeling in private was not allowed. This was a violation of the law knowingly.
"It's over, Wang Jiaping and Fan Yingqi follow me." Ge Shouli scolded him angrily, put his hands behind his back, and returned to the study angrily.
Ge Shouli signaled the two of them to leave, and then said clearly: "You two are now the same examiners. Do your work well and don't accept bribes just to facilitate the examination. This spring is the first time since your Majesty ascended the throne. How many people are watching to get the soldiers, if you are caught, I will not save you two, if you think that I, the party leader, have not done well, just wait for Zhang Siwei to return to the court, and you can just go and join them."
"What did Mr. Ge say?" Wang Jiaping and Fan Yingqi waved their hands repeatedly to show their loyalty.
Ge Shouli looked at Wang Jiaping and said: "There is also the matter of Gao Qi's Yuxiang examination questions. His Majesty has already said it. As of now, we have reaped the benefits. Wang Jiaping, you have also taken the same examination as you wished. Don't pursue it too much. Don't Let the Kedao Yanguan report this matter again."
"Isn't this a good opportunity to overthrow Yuan Fu?" Wang Jiaping asked with some confusion.
Ge Shouli shook his head and said: "We have overthrown Zhang Juzheng, who will do the work? Are you coming? Or am I coming? Or is Lu Tiaoyang coming? I know how many pounds and taels there are. Regarding the return of Nanya to the fields, there is one person in the civil and military affairs of the dynasty. Count one person, who can do it better than Yuan Fu?"
"The imperial court suffered a huge financial deficit. The annual income of the Ming Dynasty was less than 19 million taels of grain. Using the price of grain in the capital, it was only 8 million taels of gold and silver. Adding in the silver, the annual income of the Ming Dynasty was no more than 12 million taels. , such a big Ming Dynasty cannot make ends meet and needs money everywhere. Since you can't do it, don't covet Yuan Fu's position. If you get there, you won't be able to do anything, but it will make people laugh."
"Your majesty has the power of majesty and blessing. Your majesty has made it clear that it will stop here. It will stop here. Do not pursue. Whoever pursues whoever gets into trouble will take care of it themselves."
"That's almost it. I'll give it up when it's good."
"Then when will Yuan Fu be overthrown?" Fan Yingqi said in confusion. Didn't the Jin Party want to overthrow Zhang Juzheng? Why don't you take advantage of such a good opportunity?
Ge Shouli thought for a while and said, "When will Yuan Fu stop taking the exam and become a Dharma master, and be in harmony with all the officials in the world? Then we can overthrow him."
"Tell Zhang Siwei to let the two uncles and nephews fill Xuanda's hole properly. Don't cause any trouble. Don't get hurt when the time comes. He begs and comes to me to cry. He also says that I won't help him."
Ge Shouli not only wanted to restrict his own faction and stop the pursuit, but also warned Zhang Siwei that if something happened randomly, he would have to deal with it himself and he could not control it.
Ge Shouli is naive, not stupid. If he continues, he will force Zhang Juzheng to take further action. He will also spit out the benefits he has just gained. To fight against Zhang Juzheng, you must learn to accept when you are satisfied. The emperor supports Zhang Juzheng, as long as Zhang Juzheng does not step over the line, he will still To implement the examination method, we still need to break the shortcomings of appeasement, and if we want to rectify the unhealthy trends in the world, there is no need to backfire.
At this time, in front of the Quanchu Guild Hall, Gao Qiyu held a greeting card and asked to see him. You Qi led Gao Qiyu into Wenchang Pavilion.
"Gao Qiyu, a disciple of the Quanchu Guild Hall, has met Mr. Yuan Fu." Gao Qiyu bowed at the door and kowtowed respectfully.
Zhang Juzheng sighed and said, "Get up, You Qi. Please point out Gao Qiyu's filial piety over the years and return the money to him. Gao Qiyu, please return the badge to the guild hall."
"Ah?" Gao Qiyu was stunned. He had no idea that the host who called him here today wanted him to return his badge!
Zhang Juzheng waved his hand and said: "We are in the capital, and you actually asked that kind of question in the provincial examination. Are you trying to help me, or are you trying to hurt me? It's useless to talk too much. We don't agree with each other. In the future, you can do things on your own, think more, and don't think about it anymore." Causing trouble.”
"Causing trouble?" Gao Qiyu stood up and said with firm eyes: "Since Sir is driving me away, I have to leave, but before I leave, I still want to say a few words from the bottom of my heart. Since ancient times, if you want to make great contributions to the country, you must do it. This is an extraordinary thing! Sir, you have great ambitions, ambitions, and talents. The world is in dire straits right now, and you need all your skills to turn the tide."
"But sir, have you ever thought about what will happen after your death? Even if you don't seek fame, what about the New Deal? People are dying and the government is in danger, Yuan Fu!"
Zhang Juzheng sat upright and asked: "Have you read the contradiction?"
"I was busy with official duties, so I didn't read carefully." Gao Qiyu was silent for a moment and replied.
"You don't know that His Majesty is becoming wiser and has such an idea." Zhang Juzheng shook his head and said, "Let's go, the friendship between you and me is over."
"Student, please leave." Seeing that he could not be persuaded, Gao Qiyu knelt down and bowed before he was willing to leave.
Zhang Juzheng looked at Gao Qiyu's leaving figure, sighed heavily, picked up the tea cup, looked at You Qi who was seeing off the guests, and asked with a smile: "Do you think Gao Qiyu is right?"
"No, no." You Qi looked around, and after confirming that there were no ears on the wall, he gritted his teeth and said, "If so, if it was His Majesty before the assassination of the king and the driving case, I think Gao Qiyu's words are reasonable. He is old at the age of ten. At that time My lord, you are somewhat taking state affairs as a joke."
"Now, what Gao Qiyu said is wrong."
You Qi also explained his thoughts straightforwardly.
You Qita understands Zhang Juzheng very well. A young genius like Zhang Juzheng has never been confused along the way. Only the little emperor confused Zhang Juzheng.
In the past, the little emperor did not study hard and was a bit rebellious. The stricter the requirements, the less he studied hard. He was not very enthusiastic about state affairs. He had the style of Emperor Jiajing and Emperor Longqing.
Now, the little emperor often puzzles Zhang Juzheng. Zhang Juzheng occasionally ponders for a long time because of the emperor's problems.
"Your Majesty has never been tired of repaying His kindness." Zhang Juzheng shook his head and said, "Send the gifts I prepared for the Longevity Festival to the palace."
"Yes." You Qi bowed his head.
Zhang Juzheng sat on the Taishi chair and unscrewed the telescope in his hand. The guest star in the sky had become dim, but it was still there. It had changed from the size of a lamp to a weak fluorescent light.
A guest star appeared in Ziweiyuan. Is Gao Qiyu the only one among the DPRK and Zhang Dang to have such disrespectful thoughts about such a celestial phenomenon?
An orphan and a widowed mother are easy to bully at first glance, right?
Zhu Yijun had just finished dinner, and Queen Mother Li asked hesitantly: "Emperor, are you so confident that Yuan Fu will not overstep his bounds?"
After speaking, Queen Mother Li glanced out the window and looked at the almost insignificant guest star. At this time last year, the guest star was as big as a lamp.
Zhu Yijun said quite accurately: "Well, I don't believe he is a sycophant. He is now infamous and wants to return the land in Nanya. Does my mother think this is a sign of overstepping his bounds?"
"Mother is just a little worried. What the emperor said is reasonable." Empress Dowager Li thought for a while and nodded in approval of the young emperor's idea. If she wants to overstep her bounds, it is not such an overstep. There are so many memorials to impeach Zhang Juzheng. She comes to Qianqing Palace every day to test The enactment of the law caused complaints from bureaucrats all over the world. Zhang Juzheng was not taking an arrogant path.
"Queen Mother, Your Majesty, Yuan Fu has sent a gift to the palace, and I ask Your Majesty to take a closer look at it." Feng Bao was followed by more than a dozen small yellow gates, carrying up objects that were as tall as one person and more than ten feet wide. The object was covered with red silk cloth.
"What did you bring, sir?" Zhu Yijun stepped forward and slowly pulled open the red silk cloth. The gift presented by Zhang Juzheng appeared in front of the little emperor and the queen mother.
A large mahogany screen with fifteen pages. On the screen is a map of the Ming Dynasty. On the left screen, there are cabinet ministers, court ministers, court ministers, and Beijing officials. On the right screen, there are Jingying, Jiubian, and Jingying. General soldiers from all over the country, there are many hooks on these screens, and square colored wooden blocks are hung on them. Floating stickers are attached to the wooden blocks. The names of civil and military officials are written on the front of the floating stickers, and on the back are written The resumes of these people.
"On the left side are the names of civil servants, and on the right are the names of military attachés. They will be changed when they are promoted or deposed." Feng Bao took off Yang Bo's name and replaced it with Zhang Han's. Just turn it over a little. See this person’s past history.
Above the screen is a map of the Ming Dynasty. On it is a map of the two capitals and thirteen provinces of the Ming Dynasty. On the map, there are the names of the governors, chief envoys, inspectors, and generals of the capital. When you flip it over, you can See their resume.
"Zhang Juzheng, the chief minister of the cabinet, Tan Lun, the minister of war, and Zhang Han, the minister of civil affairs, sent your majesty a gift to enter the "Pingshu of Official Officials" and asked your majesty to read it." Feng Bao took out a memorial and bowed his head.
Zhu Yijun opened the memorial and said with emotion: "The key to reassuring the people lies in knowing people. When discussing official talents, one must examine their qualities."
"Master Gu is in the ninth level and has traveled all over the world. The names and addresses of his ministers are still unknown. How can he be able to identify them one by one and depose them? Between Chaoning and Ning, there are hundreds of concubine's houses. It is not possible to do so. How can I be able to stay far away from the four prefectures and countries?"
"Mr. Talented."
The memorial is very long. Zhang Juzheng went up to this screen, which can be roughly understood as: "The Ming Dynasty Key Position Personnel Management Bulletin, Visual Management System".
This is information, and information is power.
Feng Bao bowed his head again and said: "Every ten days, each ministry will be promoted and transferred, each official will be sent to the cabinet, and the ministers will order the Zhongshu official to write it again. The screen will be set up behind the Wenhua Palace, where Your Majesty will tell you where to read the characters. , so that you can read it day and night."
"Why are these brands six colors?" Zhu Yijun asked a little strangely.
"The white ones are for the Chu Party, the green ones are for the Jin Party, the blue ones are for the Zhejiang Party, the purple ones are for the Qi Party, and the wooden ones are for the No Party." Feng Bao smiled as he held up the hanging signs with floating stickers in different colors. said.
There is another color, Feng Bao did not explain, but the vermilion brand is obviously the Imperial Party. Qi Jiguang, Hai Rui, and Yu Dayou are all vermilion brands.
"Mother, Mr. Yuan Fu is respectful." A smile appeared on Zhu Yijun's face, which quickly melted away and turned into a sunny and cheerful smile.
Empress Dowager Li looked at the fifteen pages of the screen. The little emperor only had to stretch out his hand to know who was in this position, where he came from, what his resume was, and what party he belonged to. She walked slowly over and stood in front of the screen, full of excitement. He said with emotion: "It has been a long time since the Ming Dynasty had such a respectful minister."
"Over the years, the ministers have always held high the rules of Confucian etiquette and insisted on restraining the emperor. Even when they recommended ministers to serve, they were vague."
The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty was tightly bound in an information cocoon. Not only could he see clearly the affairs of the world, even the court officials and what they were, were all unclear.
This is also the way the chief minister in the world has played since Sanyang. The power of the Ming Dynasty is infinite, but if you, the emperor, don’t know, you can only listen to the chief minister’s opinions.
However, Zhang Juzheng did not act like the first assistant in this way. He wrote "Chen Wu Shi Shu" to ask the young emperor to meet with the court officials and summon the assistant ministers. With the help of Hou Yu Zhao's memorial, he invited the emperor to meet with the court officials, and also used the ancestral law to invite the emperor to meet with foreign officials. , meet the county magistrate's official history, meet the people who have been wronged and the elders.
Now, these fifteen pages of screen have been moved in front of the emperor, and all the people in the world can be seen at a glance.
Zhang Juzheng never wanted to trap the little emperor firmly in an information cocoon, but hoped that the little emperor could really become a talented person and truly become a wise and wise king.
The little emperor walked back and forth in front of the screen with his hands behind his back, like a lion examining his territory. He stood still, took the long wooden stick that came with the screen, and pointed at the Ming Dynasty with a smile. He said to Feng Bao and Zhang Hong with interest: "Yin Zhengmao is here, in Guangzhou Mansion in the far south, and Hao Jing is here. It is the place where Yin Zhengmao drove away the little Franji people some time ago."
"Yue Gang is here, Songjiang Mansion is here, Du Zhangman is here."
"It's clear at a glance."
Zhu Yijun smiled and said: "Okay, okay, let's see and enjoy."
Feng Bao took out another memorial and bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, Yuan Fu submitted a memorial and said that he wanted to resign to the first-class salary, but he still gave him the second-class salary of a bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion and a minister of the Ministry of Rites. This is the fault of your Majesty for being lax."
"No." Upon hearing this, Zhu Yijun immediately shook his head and said, "My reward is just a reward. There is no reason to take it back."
"I obey the decree." Feng Bao presented the ink pen, and Zhu Yijun thought for a while and wrote: "If you don't agree, don't discuss it."
"Mother, the child is going to study in agriculture." Zhu Yijun finished dealing with the screen and walked back to his dormitory to study.
Gao Qiyu's incident, under the joint suppression of the emperor, Zhang Juzheng, and Ge Shouli, did not cause much trouble. The main reason was that the official Shuping was indeed respectful.
Zhang Juzheng, Tan Lun, and Zhang Han went up to such a screen, which immediately aroused discussion in the court. Zhang Juzheng immediately transformed from a treacherous minister who overstepped his lord, to a flatterer who wanted to please the emperor. How could he hold hundreds of officials to please the emperor? Underwear is flattering!
Zhang Juzheng's public opinion is extremely complicated. On one side, he is arrogant and on the other side, he is flattering. Which side is Zhang Juzheng, or are they both Zhang Juzheng?
Gao Qiyu returned to the inn and took out the contradictory theory that he had already obtained but had not had time to read. Zhang Juzheng no longer recognized him as a student, but finally asked him if he had read it. Gao Qiyu naturally wanted to read it and study it carefully. Ichiban, you need to know exactly what you have done so that you can avoid making mistakes in the future.
Gao Qiyu kept reading by candlelight. It was not until he finished reading the book that he realized that he seemed to have made a mistake. Although the little emperor was small, he could really succeed.
The little emperor is no longer the lazy little emperor who didn't care about state affairs in the past, but a wise and wise monarch.
After three days of separation, treat each other with admiration.
Gao Qiyu opened a blank memorial and was silent for a long time. Then he began to write a memorial to invite him to become an official. What he did made his teacher fall into passivity. Since he had done something wrong, he had to admit his mistake. , and eliminate the impact.
There is no doubt that becoming a professional is a solution.
The next day, Gao Qiyu received the next chapter of the memorial. There was a cross on it, indicating that he should be approved. The little emperor did not allow him to become an official, so Gao Qiyu could only continue to serve the emperor.
The little emperor's meaning is very clear. Gao Qiyu will have to wait and see whether Zhang Juzheng will seek glory and be humiliated, whether he will die and the government will cease to exist!
Look who can't afford it!
The weather in February was still cold, and four thousand people who came to Beijing began to line up to enter the Gongyuan and begin the examination. The Ming Dynasty's triennial examination began in the early morning mist.
Among this group of people, there were two people who were very eye-catching. Zhang Juzheng's sons Zhang Jingxiu and Zhang Maoxiu, both of them entered the Gongyuan examination as Shuntian Prefecture candidates.
The imperial examination began in full view of everyone.
As soon as the examination began, the memorial to impeach Zhang Juzheng for manipulating the country's most powerful imperial examination floated into the cabinet like snowflakes.
First of all, it is to question the birthplace of Zhang Jingxiu and Zhang Maoxiu. They were born in Shuntian Prefecture and participated in the imperial examination as candidates of Shuntian Prefecture of Beiya. If they won the Jinshi, they would be in the Beibei Ranking; if they were from Huguang, they would be the candidates of Huguang. If you take part in the imperial examination, you will win.
Regarding Zhang Jingxiu and Zhang Maoxiu, where should they be selected for the examination? The DPRK and the Central Committee launched an extremely heated discussion.
The number of places in the North List and the Middle List are different, and the scoring standards are different.
Secondly, some officials believe that it is appropriate for the children of officials above the third rank of the Ming Dynasty to ignore their favors. The father and son are both Jinshi of the country, especially when they are the first ministers of the country. Isn't it easy to seek Jinshi for the son? Zhang Juzheng did all kinds of bad things and used his power for personal gain.
While the parliamentary examination was still going on, the impeachment against Zhang Juzheng was already intensifying.
Zhang Juzheng seemed to have anticipated this situation. If he asked the Jin gentry to return their fields in Nanya, would it expand from Nanya to the entire world? This is inevitable, just like the Kao Cheng method was tried out in Beijing and then spread throughout the world.
Therefore, Zhang Juzheng will inevitably be widely questioned. This doubt is a kind of resistance to Zhang Juzheng's presiding over the return of farmland.
Opposing a government order does not necessarily mean explicitly opposing the order. It can also completely stigmatize the person in charge. If the problem cannot be solved, it is also a common practice to solve the problem by solving the problem.
Zhu Yijun came to the Wenhua Hall again. Next to the Wenhua Hall, there was a screen of official books presented to the emperor by Zhang Juzheng.
"Your Majesty has a decree." When Feng Bao was waiting for everyone to greet him, he flicked his fly whisk and said, "The emperor is destined to be carried by heaven. The edict says:"
"Jin Xi dares to say that he can serve the country. He has spent so many years that he has not yet completed his studies. Mr. Jin has made great achievements and I have nothing to do to reward him. I just look after his descendants. I appreciate this."
Zhu Yijun's imperial edict was extremely brief. The poem he quoted was a fatal poem written by Zhang Yunxiu, the fifth son of Zhang Juzheng, in the 17th year of Chongzhen.
In the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, the subordinates of the Great Western King Zhang Xianzhong arrived in Jiangling. They heard that Zhang Juzheng's son Zhang Yunxiu lived here and insisted that Zhang Yunxiu come out to become an official. Zhang Yunxiu refused and committed suicide to die in the Ming Dynasty.
In the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, not only Emperor Chongzhen died for his country, but Zhang Juzheng's fifth son, Zhang Yunxiu, died to honor the Ming Dynasty.
Zhang Juzheng's great-grandson Zhang Tongchang resisted the Qing Dynasty in the late Ming Dynasty. He was captured and refused to rebel. He was unyielding and was beheaded in public. Zhang Juzheng was not disloyal to the Ming Dynasty, his son was not disloyal to the Ming Dynasty, and his great-grandson was not disloyal to the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Yijun didn't know what these court officials were arguing about. Yan Song's son Yan Shifan, Enyin, was an official, Xu Jie's son Enyin was an official, and Zhang Juzheng's sons did not follow Enyin's path, but took the imperial examination route and followed the world. Why can't it work if all the scholars study together?
"As for whether Mr. Yuan Fu's two sons are enke, it won't be too late to discuss it after the enke is over. Let's discuss it." Zhu Yijun announced his decision.
